Hallmarks of cancer: the next generation. (2011, positive): “The frequently observed downregulation and occasional mutational inactivation of E-cadherin in human carcinomas provided strong support for its role as a key suppressor of this hallmark capability (Berx and van Roy, 2009; Cavallaro and Christofori, 2004).”
Adherens junctions: from molecules to morphogenesis (2010, background): “Moreover, abnormal cadherin function is linked to cancer and other human diseases, and cadherins can be co-opted by cytoplasmic parasites for cell entr”
New functionalities in the TCGAbiolinks package for the study and integration of cancer data from GDC and GTEx (2019, background): “They are often overexpressed in tumors and contribute to the promotion of cell growth and invasion [58].”
